Anybody have a recommendation for a manufacture of right angle F-type adapters for use between the receiver and dish?

Thanks, but that is a compression connector. I want just the right angle adapter.

I think I bought my last bunch at Lowes Depot or Home Lowes... :)
Cheers,

Try NOT to use the right angle connectors as they're known to have a bad mis-match. RF simply doesn't like right angles.

I agree with VOS, but if there isn't a choice, http://www.techtoolsupply.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=863
I also agree with VOS, however having said that I have used right angle adapters on many of my satellite connections (both regular and SWM) with no problem at all.

Thanks for the info.
I really don't need the right angles, but I just don't like the cable sticking out from the wall plate like it does with straight connectors.
Maybe the better solution is angled Keystone wall plates.

I got mine at Radio Shack. I use four on my travel trailer. Two outside so the cables hang down, not out. My DVR is in a tight area and in order to not bend the cable to much I use right angle connectors inside. I also use a 270 degree hdmi connector. Haven't had any problems yet.
